Fastest week in media. It\u2019s Friday. Let\u2019s go.<\/p>\n
JOHNNY DONOVAN: And now, from sunny south Florida, it\u2019s Open Line Friday!<\/p>\n
RUSH: Yes siree. Open Line Friday, which differs from Monday through Thursday in that the program is not as tightly screened, which means that you can talk about pretty much anything you want. That\u2019s not the way it is Monday through Thursday. You may not notice any difference, but believe me, there is one. Friday\u2019s the day where I have to take calls on things I don\u2019t care about.<\/p>\n

Friday\u2019s the day where I have to say “yes” to things I want to say “no” to. Friday is generally a day where I\u2019m in a ticked off mood and I\u2019m in a ticked off mood now, as I continue to have to say “no” to things everybody wants me to do. No! I have to say “yes” to things I don\u2019t want to do. I gotta do \u2019em. And you might say, “Well, Rush join the club. That\u2019s everybody.” No, not for me, my friends, I have reached that point in life where I don\u2019t have to do what I don\u2019t want to do. But does that deter people from pressuring me and trying to guilt trip me and putting the onus? No, not at all. And so in that regard I remain tied down as anybody else is.<\/p>\n
Anyway, I don\u2019t want to burden you with that. I try to make it a point never to come in here and bleed on audience. (interruption) What do you mean, the price of fame? What\u2019s the price? What do you mean, what\u2019s the price? Having to do things I don\u2019t — no. You don\u2019t understand. I\u2019m not talking — no, no, no, no. I\u2019m talking about people who know full well I don\u2019t want to do something and keep pressuring me to do it as though I\u2019m under some obligation to. No, no, no, no. I\u2019m not gonna divulge this. It\u2019s only been going on here for, what, 29 years and however many months. Next they\u2019ll want me to do a penile enhancement commercial and I\u2019ll say, “I\u2019m sorry, I can\u2019t relate, I don\u2019t need it.”<\/p>\n
“Doesn\u2019t matter, they\u2019re willing to pay the money.”<\/p>\n
“Sorry, I don\u2019t want to do it,” and they keep asking and asking and asking. Well, I make that up as an exaggerated example.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
